Hi, all-

Happy to have registered today! We're proud new owners this week of a beautiful 2008 St. Tropez. Looking for a second 150 or 170 too.

We look forward to learning from the many Buddy enthusiasts out there. And we look forward to sheepishly asking a question here and there down the road.

Thank you, Mike! Do you know/anybody, if the Buddy low profile seat does shorten the distance between the seat and ground in actuality/as a practical matter. I know its advertised as lowering by 1.5" but Im wondering if it does so 'for real'... Also, I don't know if this is how I ask a question of any/all users, by replying to you per sa. I haven't 'posted' on any platform before doing so now... R/Bobbie-

Yes, the low down seat works as advertised. Plus, I find it more comfortable. All my Buddy scooters had one. Worth the investment.
